397 | Jerry Dunleavy & James Hasson: Two Years After the Fall of Kabul - Was the Chaotic Withdrawal Inevitable?

Jerry Dunleavy, House Foreign Affairs Committee investigator, and James Hasson, Afghanistan veteran and author, join The Realignment. Jerry and James are co-authors of Kabul: The Untold Story of Biden’s Fiasco and the American Warriors Who Fought to the End. Jerry, James, and Marshall discuss their case that the chaotic and deadly end of America's involvement in Afghanistan wasn't inevitable, the need to separate the debate over whether the U.S. should have stayed in Afghanistan from the actual implementation of the withdrawal, the specific Biden administration decisions that led the withdrawal astray, and the state of Afghanistan two years after the Taliban's return.
